According to this, Galway City and Longford have it much worse. I suspect the figures in relation to traveller population in Limerick are totally fudged. Travellers even denying that they are travellers.
Police in Queensland are searching for two Irish men who are allegedly scamming elderly residents in nearby neighbourhoods.
According to the police, the men are claiming to be road workers and negotiate a price to conduct the work on the spot but fail to complete the job and then threaten residents for payment.
The latest incident occurred on Friday, March 10 around 11.30am where two men attended a Deception Bay residence in a white utility full of gravel.
When the 78-year-old male resident told them he wouldn’t pay until the job was completed, a verbal argument ensued and the men allegedly restrained him and stole approximately €1,000.
Queensland Police shared photos of the two men on social media following two separate incidents in nearby suburbs.
In fairness to them. If you can’t pull a scam in Deception Bay where can you do it.
